Being Larry King, USA Today Columnist, For a Day



If you looked in a dictionary under the word "tenderloin cruiser", you'd see a picture of Radu...

*I love burnt toast in the morning with my black coffee.

*When people say Da Lin is a local TV news legend, I would respectfully disagree.

*Cheryl Jennings is like a fine wine--she gets better with age.

*About five years ago when I was schmoozing with my friend, Tommy LaSorda, he said to watch out for a kid in SF by the name of Lincecum. Don't rule the kid out.

*If you put ketchup on a hot dog, you should be deported.

*When I'm running on the treadmill at the gym and have to take a look at Dana King, I know my eyes will feel better than my heart.

*"Make me Laugh" was one fine, underrated comedy game show.

*Pete Giddings is still a legend in my book.

*If you look up the word "artist" in the dictionary, you'll see a picture of Karel next to it.

*I hate tofu.

*Amy G is a San Francisco sports treasure that we all take for granted.

*Larry Baer is the baseball version of Steve Jobs.

*Sometimes...blueberries are better than sex.

*Why ever did people make fun of Captain Crunch?

*The KNBR Morning Show is almost as iconic as a Jack Benny special.

*Ann Killion is the local woman sports writer equivalent of Amelia Earhart.

*If KGO Radio were a horse, I'd swear I just see the reincarnation of the late, great, Ruffian.

*Any day without Karel is a lost day in my world.

*Pickled herring is making a comeback and I, for one, am happy.

*Damon Bruce is not the dogs playing poker on the picture--rather a Rembrandt with a large portion of Caligula and Ike from Fremont.

*If you ever mess with Stan the commenter, you're messing with me.

*Ray Ratto and a grilled cheeseburger sounds kinda sexy to me.

*Lee Hammer and Bill Bungeroth are radio Warren Buffetts.

*I love creamed cheese on my bagel.

*Marty Lurie and baseball stories, Sandy Koufax and Red Barber, give me a complete woody.

*Larry Krueger and Kate Scott evoke images of my Brooklyn evolution.

*When I hear the two words, "Ronn Owens", I just might want to go out and buy a boat load's worth of temperpedics.
